Yes, you don’t have to tell me, but this ruling is post-Brexit and any new rulings don’t apply to UK as the law has been just transposed as it was on the exit day. So until UK government changes it, it does not apply.

Here’s the press release about the ruling from 21 Dec 2021.

https://curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/docs/application/pdf/2021-12/cp210226en.pdf

It won’t apply to UK airlines on an ex UK flight (unless and until this ECJ gets made part of UK law) but it will on flights leaving the EU to the UK.

As time advances there will be more and more asymmetry between the two regulations leading to more and more confusion.
